The Presidents’ Suites is an in an out-of-the-ordinary accommodation with a touch of luxury and ample space for your getaway in the Temiskaming region. With our different historical homes available and plenty of activities to entertain everyone in the group, we guarantee that your stay with us will be memorable and will be kept at a reasonable cost.

Your spa getaway at the Presidents’ Suites would be close to nature. Time spent on the dock, enjoying a morning walk at the marina, a hike to Devil’s Rock, an outing to our private island… At the end of your day, a good meal, a bit of wine and time relaxing in the exterior hot tub.

It is also possible for us to arrange for massage or aesthetician services in your home. The group then pays fees for these services. However, we have developed a ‘spa basket’ which is another, less expensive, option where people use themselves the different products which include robes, manicure products, foot bath and pedicure products, mask products , massage table, music and magazines, candles and aromatic oils, gourmet teas, scented water … Simply an ideal location for wellness stays and retreats.

Wellness Retreats

Our vision is to develop a wellness pillar and to provide a retreat center where people could experience renewal and deep well-being. We believe that as human beings, we need to seriously consider major changes in the way we are living.

The great epidemics of tomorrow are unlikely to resemble those that have previously swept the world. But it is the looming epidemics of heart disease, stroke, cancer, asthma, diabetes, obesity and other chronic diseases that for the foreseeable future will take the greatest toll in deaths, disability and quality of life. It is vitally important that the impending chronic disease pandemic is recognized, understood and acted on urgently.

A Few Facts

2 in 5 Canadians will develop cancer in their lifetime. It is expected that this will rise even more.

In 2010, 8.5% of the Canadian population have been diagnoses as having asthma. Prevalence rates of asthma worldwide are rising by 50% every decade

44% is the estimated diabetes prevalence increase in Canada from 2015-2025

The proportion of obese Canadians in 2014 now sits at 20.2%, up from just over 15% in 2003.

Conditions of several chronic illnesses including cancers can improve or can even be prevented when changes are made in people’s lifestyles – what you eat, what is around you, how you live and how well you are with yourself.

The Presidents’ Suites historical homes are the perfect place for wellness stays and retreats. We can easily accommodate groups up to 25 people and we can offer all the amenities required for a very successful activity. Such amenities include meeting areas, fully equipped kitchens where food preparation is possible, exterior areas including our private dock and island and a lot more. If you are interested in organizing a wellness retreat, contact Nicole to discuss your project and how we can help you so that it becomes a reality.

We will be developing a few wellness programs in collaboration with a dedicated team of professionals, for those who seek a retreat away from their daily lives or those who want to make healthy changes in their lifestyle. We are currently putting together several ideas to develop the programs hoping to be able to start offering the first ones later in 2016. It will be offered in the beautiful historical setting of the President’s Suites, overlooking beautiful lake Temiskaming.

We believe that we can help to transform the lives of those affected by chronic illnesses and to inspire healthy living for all.

A Few Testimonials

__________________________________________

In January 2016, members of our wellness community used the Presidents Suites – Lumber Baron Home and facilitated a three-day training event called “LIVE LOVE LAUGH”. Our 25 participants enjoyed the Lumber Baron’s luxurious and relaxing setting. This spacious home is designed for comfort and has an extraordinary “retreat” feel. The main meeting room is open, bright and easily accommodated our sizeable group. The workshop breakout rooms are equipped with conference amenities and the smallest of details were given great care and attention. The kitchen facility catered to our open lunch and dinner options. We enjoyed the special touches for our facilitators including receiving the warm, homemade croissants which were gently nestled in a bread basket. Thank you so much Nicole and Jocelyn were taking such tremendous care of our groups needs and requests. Simply great for wellness stays and retreats. We are grateful!
